Just keep an eye on the Classic Shell website at Classic Shell - Start menu and other Windows enhancements
.
Two new versions were just released:
4.2.6 beta - many new features, skinning for the taskbar, Redstone fixes, and others. More about it here: http://www.classicshell.net/forum/vi...php?f=4&t=6073
4.2.5c - a re-release of 4.2.5 with updated certificate. Download it if you are getting certificate warnings.
Download both from the main page: www.classicshell.net
Thank you, @Ivo! 4.2.6 beta on 14342... First things I noticed: Click Start Button now works for go to Start Menu - Search box now defaults to focused without mouse click - Metro Apps have the "Uninstall" option back. Still working with it! Also, was not rejected by MS install, did not change name or any other "tricks", just ran as admin, over 4.2.5. Again, thanks!!
Beware of Classic Shell with Win10!
With some installed programs, but not all: Click Start > enter program name > Enter . . and A)the program won't run, and B) hitting WinKey will not open the Start menu, and to get the Start menu working you have to reboot via holding the computer's power button for five seconds.
I've uninstalled Classic Shell and the WinKey and Start menu are back to normal.
Beware of Classic Shell with Win10.
You may have a bad install of Classic Shell or the settings are not correct. It works fine here on the current build (10586) and the Insider build (14367). Use version 4.2.7, it's fine. There also may be other problems with your general setup that are causing issues, but that is another subject.
